Chopped 31 Ford Coupe
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
This is my latest car, a 1931 Ford Coupe. Unlike the American Graffiti car this one has a chopped body. I did not painted it for the purists among us. It is made out of Brazilian Cherry on a base of maple. The gear shift knob and swearing wheel are Cocobolo. The air intake and exhaust system are repurposed brass casings. (264 Mag).

This is another Red Oak Urn. A little bit different style than my others. All the ones I've built before were top loading. This one is bottom loading, which is standard in the industry. Inside is 200 ci. Which is also standard. Has a cut accent where the top and bottom attach. And two routed accents. With rocking chair felt pads on bottom. Natural stain with four coats of water base glossy finish rubbed on. Screws are recessed 1/16” in.

Pen Knife - For Woodworking Layout
Furnished content. (from Lumberjocks.com)
Hello everyone. Are you staying warm and safe? I pray so.Some of you may remember when I made this quick and dirty marking knife;Well, it worked for a time and then it didn't. I found that it was not as safe to use as I had hoped. So, I had to come up with something different.The idea for the marking knife you see in the photos came to me out of the blue.You see, when I'm in the middle of a project and something I'm doing, or a tool that I'm using, isn't working, I need a quick effective solution. I don't care if it looks good, I just need it to work.I sat down and started thinking about how to make another quick and dirty marking knife.Let me back up a bit. A friend of mine gave me some marking knife blades a while back when I told him about the one I originally made. Because the tang on the blades was tapered I set them aside so that I could figure out how I was going the mount them into a handle.While at my desk I happened to notice a pen sitting there and then it hit me. The marking knife you see is the outcome.You can see how I made it here.Thanks for your time. May it be well with you all.
